Review an assignment and provide feedback

For instructors receiving multiple assignments: you can filter assignments by submission date, completed date, or learner name. The following screenshot shows the filter for multiple assignments.

When a learner uploads an assignment, the instructor gets an email notification. As instructor:

1.      Log in to the portal: the notification provides a link to the learner’s assignment.

2.      Select the assignment's Pending Review.

3.      Select the Feedback tab, to comment on the assignment, or upload additional resources.

4.      Optional: Save the assignment to add feedback later.

5.      When your comments are complete, select Submit Feedback.

6.      In the confirmation dialog that opens, select Yes. 

When you submit feedback, you can

• let Safety Made Simple set the assignment status to completed
• manually set a score and course status for the learner

Reject an assignment

From the assignment's Feedback tab, you can select Reject to return the assignment to the learner.

For rejected assignments, Safety Made Simple:

• sets the learner's course status to In Progress
• sets the learner's enrollment status within the course to Pending Review
• sends an automessage informing them that their assignment was reviewed
• adds a note to the learner's dashboard, next to the course: Course Contains Rejected Assignment

The learner can review any feedback, and resubmit the assignment.
